Contemporary Architecture - 1980 - a. Soussan

Property Description

A HOUSE OF ARCHITECTURE INSPIRED BY AMERICAN LIVING

In a sought-after neighborhood, in a calm and preserved environment, this 1980s architect-designed house benefits from a dominant position and a pleasant open view. It sits on a tree-lined, fully fenced plot of over 2,500 m².

Designed by architect André Soussan for its current owners, this first-hand house tells a singular story. Upon returning from the United States, they imagined a plan inspired by the American residential model: generous spaces, smooth circulation, and a constant relationship between interior and garden.

Behind a sober architecture with Basque references, the house reveals bright volumes. Accessible on one level through a sheltered entrance, the main level hosts a large reception area combining living room and dining room, an independent equipped kitchen, extended by a remarkable fully glazed veranda. A true winter garden, it opens the house wide to the south, the garden, and the pool.

The sleeping area includes a large master bedroom with dressing room and en-suite bathroom, a second bedroom, and a large office converted from two former children's rooms. A full bathroom completes this level.

Accessible from inside, the lower ground floor offers an additional bedroom with dressing room and en-suite bathroom, a large versatile room with openings, a laundry room, and technical spaces.

Outside, the garden forms an intimate, largely wooded green setting. The living spaces open onto a south-facing terrace, while a large pool lined with tiled decks and a sheltered pool-house-style summer kitchen invite full enjoyment of sunny days.

A carport accommodates two vehicles.

Only 20 meters away, the 76 tram stop provides direct access to the Biarritz train station.

A family home with sincere architecture, whose volumes, light, and relationship to the landscape offer remarkable potential for contemporary reinterpretation. (4.74% gross fees payable by the buyer.)
